2012 Ford Fiesta 1.6L Diesel · AD12 ABU

The vehicle's most recent MOT test in January 2026 at 137,127 miles passed with advisories for worn rear sub-frame bushes and thin front brake pads. However, the test failed due to insufficient tread depth on the offside front tyre and the nearside front tyre being worn close to the legal limit. This suggests the vehicle has been maintained adequately for structural and mechanical components but requires attention for tyres and brake pads. The recurring advisories for worn suspension bushes and thin brake pads indicate a consistent trend of wear, though no major structural defects have been recorded. The mileage pattern is typical for a vehicle of this age, with an average of approximately 9,795 miles per year. The most recent test in January 2026 at 137,127 miles shows a steady accumulation of mileage, with no significant gaps or rapid increases. The data is clean and consistent, reflecting regular maintenance and use. The only notable gap is between December 2016 and January 2018, when the vehicle was not tested, but this does not suggest any unusual maintenance or usage patterns. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of structural integrity, particularly focusing on the rear sub-frame bushes and suspension components, as these have been flagged in multiple tests. The brake system should also be thoroughly examined, given the recurring advisories for thin brake pads. Additionally, the vehicle's tyres should be checked for wear, as the most recent test failed due to insufficient tread depth. The wiper blades and indicators, which have been flagged in previous tests, should also be inspected to ensure they are in good working order. Finally, the vehicle's overall condition, including any signs of corrosion or rust, should be assessed to confirm the structural integrity of the chassis and body.
